Description
I don’t think I ever really expected to feel as lonely as I did in motherhood. Especially in the fourth trimester. The days felt long, cyclical and sometimes relentless.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I found strength and solidarity in meeting with other mums. The connection was incredibly important but I always found the rigid structure of classes too formal. There was rarely opportunity to really get to know others on a deeper level.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, I’m so excited to deliver my much loved mama and baby circles for 2024! An offering I craved so much in those early days but couldn’t find anywhere. The circles are a safe, non-judgemental and relaxing space.
A chance to…
- Meet other new mums
- Connect with your baby through touch
- Regulate your nervous system
- Share any worries with an experienced postnatal doula
- Relax and recharge
You can expect a calm and welcoming environment at a beautiful studio in Heaton Chapel. The first circle is on Monday 15th January, 3-4pm and then they run bi-weekly across the year. This booking is for the first 6 weeks (15th & 29th Jan, 12th & 26th Feb & 11th & 25th Mar).
The circles will include a range of activities each week, including:
- Baby massage & connection exercises
- A meditation, relaxation or nervous system exercise to calm & reflect
- An opportunity to share with others
- A snack and refreshment
- Feeding support, sling fit check or any ad hoc doula support
- Safe space to explore any feelings, worries or concerns
